Abstract The Tulu Moye geothermal field in the actively deforming Main Ethiopian Rift presents substantial potential for renewable energy production, where interactions between fault systems, hydrothermal fluids, and tectonic activity require careful management for sustainable development. Here we present a first‐order assessment of fault stability and

The 2025 M6.4 Dapu earthquake offers a crucial opportunity to investigate coseismic deformation and fault behavior in southwestern Taiwan. Despite the absence of surface rupture, remote sensing and geodetic analyses detected significant ground ...

Linked and fully coupled 3D earthquake dynamic rupture and tsunami modeling for the Húsavík–Flatey Fault Zone in North Iceland [PDF]
Tsunamigenic earthquakes pose considerable risks, both economically and socially, yet earthquake and tsunami hazard assessments are typically conducted separately.

The 2001 M_w 7.6 Bhuj earthquake, low fault friction, and the crustal support of plate driving forces in India [PDF]
We present a source model for the 2001 M_w 7.6 Bhuj earthquake of northwest India. The slip distribution suggests a high stress drop (~35 MPa) and, together with the depth distribution of aftershocks, that the entire crust is seismogenic. We suggest that

Interseismic coupling and seismic potential along the Central Andes subduction zone [PDF]
We use about two decades of geodetic measurements to characterize interseismic strain build up along the Central Andes subduction zone from Lima, Peru, to Antofagasta, Chile.

Abstract Tectonic faults can slip in a spectrum of fault slip behaviors, from aseismic slip and slow ruptures to elasto‐dynamic earthquakes. Following frictional theory, laboratory experiments have shown that the basic ingredient that may control this transition is the interaction between the fault stiffness and the surrounding elastic medium.

Vertical creep along 15 ground ruptures within a 15 km long and 1.5 km wide zone has been occurring along the southeastern part of Metro Manila. Though the unusually high rates of vertical slip point to excessive groundwater withdrawal as the trigger ...

Active Tectonics and Earthquake Geology Along the Pallatanga Fault, Central Andes of Ecuador
Based on new geological data and the analysis of a 4 m spatial resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM), we provide a detailed and comprehensive description of section of the Chingual Cosanga Pallatanga Puna Fault System, a major active fault system in ...

Abstract Seismic ruptures that extend over kilometers along faults originate in shear zones only millimeters thick. We present a hybrid numerical framework coupling the spectral boundary integral method (SBIM) for the poroelastic bulk with a staggered‐grid finite difference method (FDM) for the fault gouge.
